It has only filled a few times in the last century as a result of heavy rains generally associated with La Nina. Wasn't the last time in the 1970s? I am guessing that SW QLD hasn't had that much but I don't know how much higher than average is required to get a flow. If you go here you can fiddle the settings to show if the catchment has had rainfall higher or lower than average etc. http://www.bom.gov.au/jsp/awap/rain/index.jsp If you want to see it you will have plenty of time to get ready as it takes weeks for the water to flow down that far so you will have notice that it is likely to happen.

I will email their hotel. It was running last year, and I wonder if it
will again this year.... I want to take a few pics this time around... It could be the climate change we want....rather than what theyre saying. I keep hoping theyre wrong......... Guess I'm optimistic.... You should hope so too. Thanks for the reply anyway....

my guessing would say not as there was not that much rain delivered
from that system overall and the rain that has fallen in the channel country has a long way to travel yet before it reaches lake eyre i don't recall there being much flooding of note where the rain actually fell? in those south western regions of qld.
